Specs:
Difficulty: Beginner, recommended for ages 8 and up.
Dimensions: Finished Catcus measure approx. 5" x 4" (13cm x 10cm).
Contents: Each kit envelope contains step-by-step photo illustrated instructions, paper pattern pieces, wool blend felt, 7mm safety eyes, embroidery floss, needle and pins.
Stuffing is not included as the finished piece is easy to stuff using scraps of felt or fabric cut into small bits, cotton balls as well as traditional stuffing.
*The felt provided is The Felt Store's which is a blend of 40% wool and 60% rayon, recommended as a higher-quality craft felt or a great alternative to 100% wool felt. Wool Blend Craft Felt has a greater density of fibers, which provides both smooth, fabric-like texture and rich color. It also meets the OEKO-TEX® standard, making it safe for everyone.
This activity is not recommended for small children, but will make a great addition to their collection.
